Cute Little Spooks


We couldn't decide whether Greyson should be a Pirate or a Dinosaur for Halloween. So, we decided to dress him up in both outfits. We put the Pirate outfit on him whenever we went out for dinner on Friday night & the Dinosaur outfit on him for Halloween night.  Before heading over to my parents house to go "Trick or Treating" with our nieces, we made some stops around our neighborhood to see some friends.  We had a lot of fun seeing all the kiddos out in their costumes.

Here's Greyson and his cousins all dressed up!
                                                  
Hope you had a "Happy Halloween!"

It's Hard To Be Neat When You're Learning To Eat!

Yummy!  Greyson tried rice cereal for the first time and it was a bit messy!  At first he wasn't quite sure what to think of the spoon, but once he realized it had "food" on it he was hooked!  Each week we've tried a new "stage one" solid food.
 
So far, we've tried green beans & sweet potatoes.  Check out his reaction to the green beans! 
Ohhh my goodness!
Daisey was even curious about what we were feeding Greyson & tried her best to get some!  I caught her before it was too late!

Baby Babble

Greyson has been extremely vocal during playtime! His language development is moving right along! I was able to take a few pics & a short video clip of him "talking" to us.

Growing Like a Weed!

Greyson had his 4th month check up & another round of vaccines today.  He now weighs a whopping 16 lbs./4 oz.(75%).  He also measured @ 26 in.(75-90%).  The doctor said that he's well proportioned!  I can't believe how much he's grown and how his appearance continues to change.  He still has his daddy's blue eyes & a bit of his mommy's red hair!  His development is progressing as normal and he is actually ahead in some developmental areas. 

He's now able to sit up, with support.  He's able to do this in his Bumbo sitter. 
Here he is playing with his cousin Camryn!
He's also been trying to sit up whenever he is on his back!
We discovered that he loves sitting & playing in his Boppy bouncer.  He figured out that whenever he kicks his legs, that he bounces!  It's too funny, but great exercise for him!
During tummy time, he loves to play with the "noisy" toy train that Grandma Karen got for him!  He loves, loves, loves for you to move it all around so that it will make its "crackle & pop" sound! It has definately encouraged him to want to be on his tummy for longer periods of time.
 
He's still fascinated with his hands! He enjoys gazing at them & continues to suck on them!
He's also been sticking to his sleep schedule.  He goes down for the night between 8:00/8:30 & sleeps for 10/12 hours!  During the day, he sleeps on & off for a total of 4 hours.  We have also increased his formula intake from 5 ounces to 6 ounces, plus some solid foods (rice cereal).

Greyson continues to bless our hearts!  We love him much & don't know what we'd do without him!
